Having dined at Elwood Bathers many times, the luncheon today can only be described as OUTSTANDING in every way! The Chef and Kitchen team excelled with the King Prawn Sliders and the Fruit di Mare main course, sans prawn and seafood shells, was eye opening and something I have never experienced at any other fine dining establishment in the WORLD! Congratulations and thank you for providing our family with culinary excellence!

We've recently started using Mt Erica as our local. At 5pm it's great for families with young kids. great food options for adults and kids. Food is terrific and consistent and served fast. The Roast Chicken and Chilli Crab Spaghetti are particular highlights. The Chocolate Semi-freddo was a perfect way to finish a meal. Highly recommend.
